Mr. Berra Welcomes Mr. Marichal

By: Yogi Berra Museum - Tue, 11/03/2009 - 4:45pm | Back to Full Blog

It was quite an eventful day here at the Museum & Learning Center as Hall of Famer Juan Marichal visited with his friend and Cooperstown colleague Yogi for a couple of hours. There were stories galore, but perhaps the best was the tale that centered on the night that Juan's Giants battled the great Warren Spahn and the Braves for 16 innings before the game ended in San Francisco's favor on a Willie Mays home run.

Marichal, who is doing World Series color commentary on ESPN Deportes along with long-time San Diego Padres Spanish-speaking play-by-play man Eduardo Ortega, also had rave reviews for two Yankees in particular--Mariano Rivera and Derek Jeter.
